Modular unit for infusing insulin and glucose uses commercially-available computing systems to control automatic analysis and dosing, with upgradability and data exchange functions

摘要

Modular unit for infusing insulin and glucose is based on commercially-available industrial computer equipment including a PC (2), operating system (6) and user program (7) controlling interchangeable peripherals. The unit determines blood glucose by analysis (5) and delivers appropriate quantities of insulin (4) and glucose (3) continuously.
